BEST BAKLAVA RECIPE!!! HOME MADE BAKLAVA RECIPE !!! PART 2/2

[decoysupreme]

I taught med food was suppose to be healthy

[dedemed]

@decoysupreme most of it is healthy, this is a dessert that you can have once in a while :)

[Fabulousfoodwithme]

hey do you think if the syrup is too thin then the baklava can be soggy? thanks:)

[dedemed]

@Fabulousfoodwithme that may be possible if the syrup has to much water

[Fabulousfoodwithme]

Hi dede med great recipe I was just wondering how to store these baklava. I made them once and the next day they were so soggy it wasn't at all good! Also is it okay to store in a closed container

thnx:)

[dedemed]

@Fabulousfoodwithme Yes you should store it in a closed container, they shouldn't be soggy, if there is excess syrup in the pan then you need to pour it out or but the baklava in a different container. Hope this helps :)

[MsBanginBitch]

Mashallah your great :) Salem eedaiky <3

[dedemed]

@MsBanginBitch thanks so much for your support :)

[nikiandkinda]

Hello:) I was wondering can I use the ground nuts after four layers of phyllo dough and continue on with that pattern?

[dedemed]

@nikiandkinda yes definitely, you can make it as thick as you want :)

[brounn]

hey maybe it sounds funny, but i wanna know whats the flavor of phyllo? not sweet rite, so i can put savoury fillings inside like corned beef/cheese/smoked beef? thank you ^^

[dedemed]

@brounn correct, the phyllo is NOT sweet. You can definitely use it for savor items or meat. Check out my sambousek recipe, it is phyllo stuffed with meat :)

[natasha123443]

My husband loves these sweets so much and we had to spend a lot of money to buy them, i was looking for an easy yet great recepie,yours is by far the best..thanks..very happy..

What the dough that you used called?

[dedemed]

@16dayhana hello, it is called phyllo dough, it can be found in most grocery or Meditteranean/Middle Eastern markets, usually in the refrigerator or freezer :)

[TheSacraminto]

thank's 

[allhamdulilah1234]

[dedemed]

@imbackinblack195 very interesting, i've never heard that before, i will try it next time :)

[prooguy]

here is a good tip

when you get the last philo sheep leave it unbyttered untill you do the cutting that way it won't stik to the knife and your hands

[dedemed]

@prooguy very interesting!

[Agentjamaica]

have you ever buttered the fello dough to slow and it dried out

[dedemed]

@Agentjamaica Yes, that is why you should keep the dough covered with plastic wrap or a lightly damp towel until you are ready to use it. You need to butter it fast so that it does not dry out :)

[pitchulinho]

[unordinarlee]

[sholoborx]

How about pouring melted butter on to instead of brushing every layer

[dedemed]

[AJSwisgirl]

How many layers of phyllo do you use in pistachio sweet? Looks delicious. Thanx

[dedemed]

@AJSwisgirl

[AJSwisgirl]

you did not mix any cinnamon in the walnut filling? Looks quick and easy. Thanx

[dedemed]

@AJSwisgirl

Yes there is cinnamon, check out the written recipe on my site :)

[Bambiezbotron]

Eating baklava for 2 minutes is better than an eternity in paradise. Diets be damned!

[dedemed]

@Bambiezbotron

LOL...TRUE!!!

[riboflavinjoe]

Good video. Thank you, I'm going to make some. Have you ever made your own phyllo?

[dedemed]

Never made my own phyllo...but maybe I will try :)

[dedemed]

[klavender87]

This stuff is good!!! My mother got me hooked on this stuff!!

[montrealstars60]

When you're eating baklava, you cannot think of dieting! You don't have it everyday, do you???

[dedemed]

definitely not everyday, but once a week is good :)

[rucatrouble]

[dedemed]

[roohi513]

I love Baklava... but it is really fattening with all that butter... i really have to portion control lol

[dedemed]

yes it is fattening, but I have a friend that tries to make it healthier by using vegetable oil or grapeseed oil instead of butter, give it a try :)

[sana69red]

burma baklava is made with shredded phyllo dough and butter and stuffed with nuts of course :) I'll add it to the next set of videos.

[sabrinacoolest]

is fillo pastry the same as the ready made pastry used for spring rolls & samosas?

[dedemed]

phyllo dough is much thinner than dough for spring rolls adn samosas.

[hussvii]

Just a few suggestions, Im a pastry chef at a Lebanese bakery and what I do when I make Baklava is instead of butter, try using vegetable ghee (similar to shortening) and layer everything dry, without adding the butter/ghee and add it afterwards. This makes cutting it easier. If you use my method, I would avoid a serated knife since a dry phylo dough would get shredded.

Goodluck!

[dedemed]

Thank you . And you are absolutely right. But my viewers do not all have access to ghee. That is why I use the butter in the video. But now my viewers will see your comment. Again Thanks.

[tianani1]

I cannot wait to try your recipe! I love love love Baklava! I was born in Cuba but love mediterrenean cooking. Baklava is my absolute favorite dessert! Will make it soon and my boyfriend will be the judge! Thanks! :)

[a2006zxcvb]

thanks dede.

[surina125]

My boyfriend always talks about the Baklava her sister brought back from Dubai. Now that you have taught me how to do it, I am going to bake him the Baklava straight from my own kitchen. Thanks Dede!

[ardethak]

Omg dede this recipe was great, tried it today!, Ihave never been a lover of baklawa, but this has made me a convert!!! I just decided to join your webpage, for more recipes, and now my mother law will eat her heart out! She's gonna realize bosnians aren't the only ones who can make baklawa!!! many many thanks!

[dedemed]

I'm glad you liked it :) The fingers are the easiest to make!

[pinkh33ls]

can you replace the butter with crisco for lower fat?

[dedemed]

I would say using less saturated fat butter. you really should use butter for making baklava. If you must you can replace it with margarine, I hope this helps you to enjoy this dessert :)

[munawarahmed1]

Hey thanks for the recipie, i was wondering if you could add the ingredients into Discription of video, it would be awesome, thankyou loved it!

[dedemed]

you can get the written out recipes on my website for free :)

[denizaks14]

Traditionally(Turkish) it's made in a round metal tray, Pistacios instead of walnuts and it has to be diamond cut, but well done. Baklava capital of the world is in Gaziantep in Turkey. Watch a vid.

[dedemed]

thank you for the additional information :)

[DeliciousHaseena]

wow. they look so good. and its not so hard to follow. thanks for video. x

[kenjijapones]

Really amazing I can wait to make it!!!!

Delicioso uhmmmm!!!!!!!!!

Thank you.

[markee871]

ohhhhhhhhhh i would die for my mom's baklava....it drips sweetness.

thanks for the vid!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[philosgal]

finally you came up with the baklava lols. thank you so much. but i can't find the simple syrup recipe :s can you please tell me where is it??

[dedemed]

it will be posted today :)

[rkmugen]

Interesting how you stack the cut phylo layers on top of each other as you butter them one by one. This effectively keeps them from drying out as you go. My only concern is that you have so much melted butter left over by the time you start cutting the squares. Is there any way to approximate how much you'll really need before you begin?

[dedemed]

You can always melt less and then melt some more butter if you need it :)

[babygyalk]

I love this sweet and u made it luk so simple i always thought it would b hard to make, well i certainly will be trying this weekend - thanks for sharing lol xx
